Lyrics: Sarah Sadler. Other. How Deep The Fathers Love For Us.

How deep the fathers love for us. how vast beyond all measure.
that he should give his only son. to make a wretch his treasure.
how great the pain of searing loss, the father turns his face away.
as wounds which mark the chose one, bring many sons to glory.

behold the man upon the cross, my sin upon his shoulders.
ashamed i hear my mocking voice call out among the schoffers.
it was my sin that held him there, until it was accomplished.
his dying breath has brought me life. i know that it is finished.

i will not boast in anything, no gifts, no power, no wisdom
but i will boast in jesus christ, his death and ressurection.

why should i gain from his reward, i cannot give an answer.
but this i know with all my heart, his wounds have paid my ransom

why should i gain from his reward, i cannot give an answer.
but this i know with all my heart, his wounds have paid my ransom.
